The Presidential Tour

By James Vun Cannon, Counselor to the First Presidency

Volume 20, Number 1, Jan/Feb/Mar/Apr 2019 Issue No. 77

Our church is a very busy place, and sometimes we do not realize that the church is working and providing ministry almost around the clock. The First Presidency desires to share the current direction of the church, different ministry projects, and all of the great things that are happening in the church with the Remnant Saints.

In 2018 and early 2019, I, along with other general church officers, including Presiding Bishop Kevin Romer and President of the Twelve Apostles, Donald Burnett, visited all of the branches of the church in North America.

I enjoyed immensely the opportunity to visit the saints and have been welcomed into many homes and churches. What a pleasure it has been to experience first-hand that we are a loving and inviting people. The saints shared so
much with me: their personal testimonies, blessings and hopes, and desires for the kingdom.

During the tour, I presented and reaffirmed the direction of the church, which is found in our mission statement:

“The Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has been called into renewal to preach the fullness of the gospel of Jesus Christ to all who will listen, and to prepare and gather a righteous people for the building

of the Kingdom of God on earth, Zion.”

We also covered the roadmap and strategy of the general church, which was followed by a discussion on each of the topics. Next, we covered some of the ministry/projects that the general church has undertaken. Then a special screening of the “Church Movie” was shown.

Call for Sacrificial Offering

By Presiding Bishop W. Kevin Romer

Volume 20, Number 1, Jan/Feb/Mar/Apr 2019 Issue No. 77

Last April, during General Conference, we set a goal to open the church’s Visitors Center to the public in June of 2018. We have not met that goal due to various expenses that were not planned, including $35,000 for roof repairs to the headquarters building and an increase in property and casualty insurance costs of over $40,000.

As we attempt to be fiscally responsible, it is our belief that to draw down our total cash reserves to complete the Visitors Center is not wise at this time. We have, however, been directed by revelation to spare no expense in our media outreach as this will become the face of the Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It is time that we start telling our own story of God’s unique call and mission of this church.
